Mysterious reads for May
Did the butler really do it? May is Mystery Month, and with the recent announcement of the Agatha Award and Edgar Allan Poe Award winners, we have more great mysteries to suggest. In this booklist, you will find winners of the Agatha Award and Edgar Allen Poe Award competitions, along with some hidden gems in KFPL’s collection.
Honouring the spirits of MMWIG2S
Indigenous girls, women and Two-Spirit people (MMWIG2S) face high rates of gender-based violence and disproportionate levels of violent crimes. In 2019, a national inquiry found that regularly, missing Indigenous women and girls are stereotyped or stigmatized and their family’s concerns are dismissed. By listening to shared truths on May 5, Red Dress Day, and every other day, we raise awareness and stand in solidarity.
For immediate emotional assistance, call 1-844-413-6649. This is a national, toll-free 24/7 crisis call line providing support for anyone who requires emotional assistance related to missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls.
